This mission was a visitation and Soyuz vehicle swap to the Elbrus crew on Salyut 7. It marked only the second time a woman flew in space and the first time a woman flew in over 19 years. The crew delivered experiments and letters to the Elbrus crew, left them Soyuz T-7, and returned home on Soyuz T-5.
